Any insider info about DXB re-opening?

Polymarket bettors say a ceasefire isn't happening until next month. https://polymarket.com/event/us-x-iran-ceasefire-by
The overall conflict is most likely not going to be ending in the next few days. In my opinion that doesn’t mean EK won’t resume flights. They have operated with warfare in the region for years, flying over Iran. The issue is the direct attacks on the UAE. If UAE has diplomatic talks with Iran and can ensure they will not be sending missiles their way then I would expect flights will resume. Iran is a close neighbor and in complete chaos right now so I see the two issues as kind of separate - a war in Iran and safe airspace.
